Big-bodied Michigan target with real vertical juice and reliable hands
In the 2023 season, Cornelius Johnson finished his Michigan career with 47 catches for 604 yards and 1 touchdown, and across five seasons he posted 138 receptions, 2,038 yards, and 14 scores. He stood out as a long, physical wideout who can win downfield, track the ball well, and block with urgency—traits scouts liked for his NFL-ready frame and effort. The knock: he was more steady than dazzling as a college producer, but his size, route savvy, and toughness made him a dependable fit for teams wanting a tough outside receiver.
